Pete Buttigieg's high school yearbook has surfaced. [View all]

Before he was a candidate, Pete Buttigieg was voted 'most likely' to be president

Democratic presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg may have a leg up on his competition in 2020.

In South Bend, Indiana, Buttigieg is nearly universally known and nearly everyone seems to have a "Mayor Pete" story.

Katie Kowals, an intake nurse at the city's Memorial Hospital, said her brother-in-law knows Buttitgieg well, but added, "He was exactly as he is now."

"You know what else?" she asked. "Mayor Pete was also voted most likely to become president in our yearbook."

In 2000, then a senior in high school, Buttigieg was voted "most likely to become president" at St. Joseph High School.
